Great Day Out in Nha Trang Countryside - We had an amazing day cooking and touring the Vietnamese countryside around Nha Trang. Dat was an incredible host who looked after us from the initial pick-up to drop off. The tour around the market was a particular highlight! We can highly highly recommend this amazing day out

Awesome cooking class experience with Chef Dat. - We had a great experience with Chef Dat. Taking us through a local market and selecting the produce for lunch that we made with him was a great highlight. Definitely worth the time if you have it in Nha Trang!

A great day with Chef Dat! - Cooking with Chef Dat in Nha Trang was a highlight of our trip to Vietnam. We loved his approach to the day, which involved putting the choice of menu items in the hands of the participants and then shopping a village market for fresh ingredients. He involved everyone in the cooking, which made it fun and engaging and gave us all a sense of accomplishment. All the while, Dat shared interesting information about food and life and thoughtfully answered our questions about Vietnamese culture and cooking. I can't wait to try some of the techniques at home.

A most do if in Nha Trang - Dat was a wonderful host collecting us from our hotel before taking us to a local market which was fascinating to wander around. He then took us to his beautiful home (and met his super cute puppy) where he showed us how to make BBQ pork ribs, chicken and rice and spring rolls all of which were made in sauces or marinades prepared by us. What an incredible feast and made so easy under his guidance. Dat is a great storyteller and we would highly recommend this experience!

Good cooking demonstration in beautiful surroundings - Superb day with Dat, collected as arranged near our hotel and brought to a local market, coconut shop, and noodle manufacturer as described by many others before returning to Dat's beautiful home and cooking school. There were just us two, which is the minimum booking for a demonstration to run. The demonstration area within the grounds of Dat's house is beautiful, peaceful, and even has a Japanese fish pond whilst the cooking area is well laid out, spacious and spotlessly clean. Dat is a talented chef with very good english and skillfully but patiently demonstrated the 3 dishes to us and also getting us very involved prior to us cooking and then eating our fare. Dat is a very nice and patient man with excellent interpersonal skills. We had a lovely day and a very flavoursome meal. I would definitely recommend it for young and old.

Cultural Cooking with Dat - Great day with Dat. Picked up in comfortable transport, strolled through the local market and visited a local family. Cooked up a traditional spread in a beautiful kitchen with the ingredients we purchased from the market. Dat was a wonderful host and made for a great experience.
